Verdict
Ishebayorgrey has only run once over the minimum trip when beaten a short-head at Cork. He has enough pace to make his presence felt again and it will be a surprise if he's not there at the finish. Anonymous Lady won here as a juvenile and also scored over an extra furlong at Navan in July so she should get competitive while Acroleina had Ability N Delivery a length back in second off levels here in February. However, BOUGHTFORASONG (NAP), though not the most consistent of performers, likes it around here and arrives on just a 3lb higher mark after beating Catwilldo at Down Royal in July - he can gain her third victory on the track. Sassaway has never won in 16 starts here but is rarely beaten far and could snatch a place.
